00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:06,799
now nothing here is a totally new and radical concept water coolers aren't new

2
00:00:04,759 --> 00:00:11,360
pre-filled water coolers aren't new and ones from Cooler Master aren't even new

3
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:16,359
but they're still pretty proud of the nepton 240m they're all like yeah it's

4
00:00:13,599 --> 00:00:21,240
got high quality included fans it's got a completely Cooler Master designed and

5
00:00:19,080 --> 00:00:27,760
manufactured pump with great quality we put a 5year warranty on it and all that

6
00:00:24,039 --> 00:00:30,119
stuff so let's find out then if it's as

7
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:34,440
good as it sounds on paper by the way speaking of things that sound our

the surface there's not much to differentiate nepton 240m from other

14

premium dual 120 mm fan liquid coolers

15
00:01:04,960 --> 00:01:11,880
the CPU block and pump combo unit features a flat machined copper base

plate on the bottom with a white LED lit Cooler Master logo on top and two side

17
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:22,280
mounted swivel fittings that connect to the pre-attached fluorinated ethylene

18
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:28,240
propylene tubing that appears to be closer to 38 in internal diameter than

19
00:01:24,479 --> 00:01:30,439
a/4 in but manages this wider flow path

20
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:34,720
without any extra susceptibility to kinking very nice the radiator it's

21
00:01:33,079 --> 00:01:40,680
connected to is a fairly standard aluminum finned 27 mm thick dual 120 mm

22
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:45,119
air with what I would describe as moderate fin density so for the quiet

23
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:50,920
freaks out there it should be suitable for use with low RPM fans as long as

24
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:56,960
they deliver High static pressure even at low RPM which leads us to the fans

25
00:01:54,640 --> 00:02:00,880
these things are actually a fantastic upgrade over the fans that Cooler Master

26
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:06,600
used to buy bundle with their neptun coolers they run it anywhere from 800 to

27
00:02:03,079 --> 00:02:09,000
2400 RPM they were extremely quiet at

28
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:14,000
1100 RPM the setting that we standardize on for our performance testing and on

29
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:18,239
top of having Square frames which allows them to seal better against the radiator

30
00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:22,959
for improved static pressure they have this included rubber gasket in the box

31
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:27,319
that further reduces vibration and air leakage I'd say my only complaint about

32
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:30,680
their new silencio fans is that you don't seem to be able to buy them

33
00:02:28,959 --> 00:02:36,200
Standalone you can only get them with the cooler cuz they're pretty darn good

34
00:02:33,239 --> 00:02:39,120
installation was a breeze on LGA 2011 the pump is efficient enough to be

35
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:45,800
powered by a fan header on your motherboard which makes life a little bit easier and the mounting hardware is

36
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:49,920
both solid you

37
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:51,720
know and easy to use so if I had to make

38
00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:57,360
one criticism here I guess it would be that the tubing runs felt a little bit

39
00:02:54,159 --> 00:02:59,599
long for me but users with larger cases

40
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:04,680
may be very thankful that the tubing is a a little bit on the longer side so

41
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:07,480
your mileage may vary which leads us to

42
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:13,440
Performance yes performance was actually very good the neptun 240m is competitive

43
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:20,480
with pretty much anything else on the playing field including even Swift tax

44
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:22,239
h220x expandable aiio but at a lower

45
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:26,480
price and with more flexible mounting options like Swift tax one because the

46
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:30,159
pump and Reservoir are on the radiator can only be mounted like this way and

47
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:35,120
this way only whereas the nepon kind of be positioned however you want it's just

48
00:03:32,799 --> 00:03:40,640
it comes inherently with the pump being on the CPU and not having a reservoir it

49
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:45,200
should be noted though that it does all this without the expandability that

50
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:49,159
Swift Tech solution affords where you can start throwing in graphics card

51
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:54,760
blocks and stuff like that one thing of note here is that upgrading to Noctua

52
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:57,799
n12 fans does as it always seems to

53
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:59,239
improve the performance but not so

54
00:03:57,799 --> 00:04:03,760
dramatically this time that we'd consider them a necessary upgrade for

55
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:09,079
potential buyers the ones in the Box are a very solid option with nice sleeved

56
00:04:06,879 --> 00:04:14,200
four pin pwm connectors and all that good stuff so overall the neptun 240m is

57
00:04:12,239 --> 00:04:17,040
a winner which is a relief for me because we've been running ads for it on

58
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:20,400
our videos for a little while now and it's always refreshing to know that the

59
00:04:18,919 --> 00:04:24,639
stuff we're advertising even if we're not specifically endorsing it also

60
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:28,800
happens to kick butt I mean I hate it when you guys buy stuff that isn't as

61
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:33,560
good as it could possibly be speaking of things we advertise that kick butt man

62
00:04:31,199 --> 00:04:38,639
that was a great segue it's BlizzCon time again and Intel has some pretty

63
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:40,639
awesome stuff going on in there their

64
00:04:38,639 --> 00:04:43,840
Booth is located near the Hearthstone stage and they're going to be showcasing

65
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,400
the latest and greatest Tech from Intel so you guys might remember the last year

66
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:52,639
Hearthstone with touch launched at BlizzCon and Intel was showing off

67
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:55,560
tablets with Hearthstone touch running so that's probably also going to be

68
00:04:54,520 --> 00:05:02,080
there it's a pretty safe beted especially with their new corm processors available they're going to of

69
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:04,600
course have gaming rigs with an emphasis

70
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:09,120
on like you know high res gaming high performance gaming and they just

71
00:05:06,199 --> 00:05:13,280
launched Haswell e back around the PS prime time frame so they're going to

72
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:18,400
have like six core and eight core gaming rigs going on up in there with ddr4

73
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:22,080
they've got a screen app where attendees can come by and take pictures in front

74
00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:25,680
of it they're going to have twitch streamers streaming at their Booth this

75
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:30,360
is something that they've done before it's pretty darn cool if you want to meet some of your you know favorite

76
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:37,400
twitch personalities that happen to be there they're going to be offering some deals through New Egg on an nus Rog

77
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:40,440
laptop the Lenovo y50 4K gaming laptop

78
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:43,800
and the Lenovo Horizon 2

79
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:45,720
27in Allin one so the promo codes are

80
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:49,160
available in the Intel BlizzCon thread on the form that's Linked In the video

81
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:53,720
description and the codes expire December 31st so you don't actually have

82
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:57,479
to like buy anything this second you could be a present for the holiday

83
00:05:55,520 --> 00:06:02,639
season or it could even be something to spend like if your parents and relatives

84
00:06:00,319 --> 00:06:08,759
